Kevin McStay (born 1962) is an Irish Gaelic football manager and former player. He was the joint-manager of the Roscommon senior team in 2016 and will be the manager in 2017.
Born in Castlebar, County Mayo, McStay was introduced to Gaelic football by his father, a former player with the Tuam Stars. He played some Gaelic football at colleges' level with St. Muredach's College and St. Jarlath's College, however, he enjoyed little success before coming to prominence at under-age levels with the Ballina Stephenites club. A two-time championship medal winner with the Ballina Stephenites senior club, he later won a championship medal with Roscommon Gaels. McStay also lined out for Ballymun Kickhams.
McStay made his debut on the inter-county scene at the age of sixteen when he first linked up with the Mayo minor team. A two-time Connacht medal winner in this grade, he later won one All-Ireland medal with the under-21 team. McStay made his senior debut during the 1983 championship. He went on to play a key role for Mayo in attack during a successful era, and won two Connacht medals. McStay was an All-Ireland runner-up on one occasion.
As a member of the Connacht inter-provincial team on a number of occasions, McStay never won a Railway Cup medal. Throughout his inter-county career he made 17 championship appearances. McStay retired from inter-county Gaelic football after breaking his leg during the 1990 championship.
